The 37-year-old tyrant declared war on the animals, because he fears they are bringing the deadly virus across the border from China. It comes after an order was issued to “catch and eliminate pigeons and cats” in North Korea as part of a wider effort to curb the spread of Covid-19. North Korea claims to have suffered no confirmed cases of Covid-19 during the pandemic, but is promoting medicines made domestically as foreign treatments are widely unavailable due to sanctions imposed by the United Nations. A North Korean man was recently executed by firing squad in front of 500 people for illegally selling music and films.
